Help Ryn raise money

Hello!

My name is Ryn, and I’m raising money to run in Twin Cities Half Marathon on October 4th, 2026 for YMCA of the North’s Adventure Team, a cohort of 17+ camps and adventure programs that offer outdoor experiences for all ages, 365 days per year. Y Adventure is fundraising specifically to increase our equity, inclusion and belonging efforts- including but not limited to: scholarships, continued learning experiences for our staff, and more! Y Adventure is committed to creating inclusive, accessible spaces that acknowledge shared history and nurture diverse communities.

As many of you may know, I spent 5 years on staff at YMCA Camp du Nord, including 2 Fall/Winter/Spring terms. Additionally I was raised at du Nord as a Camp Kid! The Y shaped my childhood and guided me into adulthood too. As an avid runner, who started their "running career" on the North Arm Road outside of Ely, I am pumped to be joining the Adventure team for this race! 

Any amount, big or small, will make a difference. Help me reach my $500 fundraising goal and get to the starting line of Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon Weekend by donating today! All proceeds will go directly to supporting our team’s equity, inclusion and belonging efforts.
